Peter Senior has rallied from 5 shots behind to win the US Champions Tour Q-School by 3 shots. It was a terrific win for Senior who finished with a four-day total of 17-under 266 on the Champions Course, the lowest score in a 72-hole q-school since Bob Gilder's winning 19-under total on the Eagle Pines course at Walt Disney World in 2000.
Senior shook off a double-bogey 7 at the par-5 9th hole, making five birdies over his final nine holes to triumph by three strokes over Joe Ozaki, Steve Haskins and Ronnie Black.
When Senior reached the 18th hole, he found himself tied for the lead with American Ronnie Black. He went on to seal the victory by rifling a 4-iron shot to eight feet and holing the birdie putt.
Senior becomes the first Australian to earn medalist honors at the Champions Tour's National Qualifying Tournament.
Our congratulations go out to Pete on a sensational achievement!
